Remeniscent of American folk-songwriters such as Bon Iver, Damien Jurado, Bonnie Prince Billy etc, Torres, from Austin, Texas, sings in a varied falsetto which lends an ethereal quality to his work.
He is performing at The Lamplight Club, held at Regather Trading Co-operative, Club Garden Road, Sharrow, on Saturday, August 19.
A club spokesman said: “We are very excited to welcome Adam. He is over in the UK for a Green Man festival show and we’ve been lucky enough to bag a date.!
“This is certainly not an opportunity you’ll get very often so take our recommendation and join us for a very special Lamplight Club.”
He will be accompanied by the players in his regular band, including percussionist, violinist Aisha Burns and Cheryl Pinero on bass.
